Beyond its thin premise, Weird Loners fares best when it digs deeper, having Stosh help Caryn out with an older relative, or exploring the childhood history between Stosh and Eric.

It’s not loud or frenetic. It’s not particularly cutting-edge. It’s just funny, in a relaxed way that’s welcome somehow in a television spectrum full of pushiness and intensity.

This show is guided by sitcom pros, but it doesn’t feel like an old-pro show at all. It doesn’t go for easy or cheap laughs, and most of its scenes don’t follow the usual sitcom trajectory--instead, they take odd twists and turns.

Creator Michael Weithorn (“The King of Queens”) effortlessly pulls Weird Loners past the usual pilot-episode blues to deliver a single-camera show that is harmlessly offbeat and even fun to watch (with something of a “Happy Endings” vibe), thanks to a cast that clicks instantly.

Loners is goofy--the same way Knighton’s “Happy Endings” was--and that’s what makes it so fun.

For the most part, Weird Loners is done well enough to merit your attention.

Maybe network executives are just throwing their hands up for now and clearing the cupboard shelves of what’s left, which includes the funny, engaging Weird Loners.

A single-camera comedy with no laugh track, Weird Loners is a pleasant enough viewing experience.

The principals are all good.... And there are funny lines.... At the same time, the show feels something shy of essential.

Weird Loners instead re-shuffles the aimless singles deck before falling well short of coming up aces.
